Friday Favorite: Trove wallpapers & window film

Every now and then I find myself scratching my head trying to come up with a interior design solution I’m really happy with. I’m one of those people who find it very hard to settle for second-best. Then, serendipitiously, when I’m least expecting it, the better-than-perfect thing comes along. This is the case with Trove. I love, love, love their designs. Their patterns are some of the prettiest-with-an-edge wallpapers I’ve seen in ages. Each of their twenty designs are printed on either linen or plain paper stock and come in several colorways.

Many of their designs began life as a photograph and are styled to create a wonderful sense of movement. They’re about 34″ wide and are cut to the height of your ceiling. I particularly like the pattern on the right (above).

These are really pretty, don’t you think? You could use both of these in the same room. One design on three walls and the other on the fourth to create a focal wall.

In addition to wallpaper, Trove makes window film. The same designs are printed onto 3 kinds of paper – each with a different level of opacity. This is the find I’d been looking for.

I’m working on a powder room which boasts a beautiful window. So, I don’t want to cover the window with the typical gathered sheer and privacy is essentiall. None of the films I’ve come across fit with the style I’m going for. One of these designs – a smaller print – will be just the thing. Yay!Trove has just introduced a couple of pendant lamps and carpet (not shown). Finally, they’ve also introduced heir patterns printed onto wood veneer (on the left, above). Trove has a showroom in New York. To find out more about where you can purchase their line, give them a call at 212-268-2046.

I’m not sure how I would use the wood veneer. Would it be pasted onto furniture? Make more pendant lamps? I need suggestions. What would you use it for?
